Every once in a while, my children blow me away with their love for, and kindness toward one another. Tonight in the tub we had one of those moments. Tessie gently poured water all over her brother, smoothing his hair down, and telling him how handsome he was. Christian smiled and thanked her. When she held her head back for me to wash her hair, he told her what a good job she was doing. At one point, Christian slipped and started to fall. He fell against the side of the tub, caught himself, and with a little help from me, sat back up. Tessie gushed how proud of him she was, and gave him a huge hug that nearly knocked him over again. When they got out of the tub I wrapped them both up in towels, and they snuggled together, giggling like crazy. Tes kept hiding behind the door and popping out to scare her brother, who shrieked with laughter each time. I just sat back and soaked up all the happy sibling time. Moments like this are precious, and absolutely beautiful.
